Serum antibody profiling identifies vaccine-induced correlates of protection against aerosolized ricin toxin in rhesus macaques - npj Vaccines
Abstract Inhalation of the biothreat agent, ricin toxin (RT), provokes a localized inflammatory response associated with pulmonary congestion, edema, neutrophil infiltration, and severe acute respiratory distress. The extreme toxicity of RT is the result of the toxin’s B chain (RTB) promoting rapid uptake into alveolar macrophages and lung epithelial cells, coupled with the A chain’s (RTA) potent ribosome-inactivating properties.
Passive immunization with an extended half-life monoclonal antibody protects Rhesus macaques against aerosolized ricin toxin
Abstract Inhalation of ricin toxin (RT), a Category B biothreat agent, provokes an acute respiratory distress syndrome marked by pro-inflammatory cytokine and chemokine production, neutrophilic exudate, and pulmonary edema. The severity of RT exposure is attributed to the tropism of the toxin’s B subunit (RTB) for alveolar macrophages and airway epithelial cells, coupled with the extraordinarily potent ribosome-inactivating properties of the toxin’s enzymatic subunit (RTA).
